Award joy for Y Not Festival

Y Not has been crowned Best Medium sized festival at the UK Festival Awards.

In celebration of their win and in the Christmas spirit, tickets for Y Not 2016, held July29-31 at Pikehall near Matlock, are now on sale for just £89.50 from ynotfestivals.co.uk.

The generosity doesn’t stop there as each ticket will arrive alongside a special Y Not beanie completely free of charge.

Seeing off tough competition from the nation’s many events to win the award, Y Not festival promoter Ralph Broadbent commented: “We’re massively grateful to the thousands of fans who voted, it’s a great honour to get such recognition.

“The progression of winning Grass Roots in 2011 to Best Small in 2012 and now Best Medium in 2015 has been tremendous and I can’t wait to see what happens next year.”

Y Not has packed in rousing sets across the rock, indie and electronic genres in its 10 year history. The Horrors, Frank Turner, Snoop Dogg, Primal Scream and a plethora of others have given their best to the crowds gathered in the peak district site.

Fresh from the celebrations of this summer’s ‘birthday’ edition of the festival the team are fired up more than ever, ready deliver the best Y Not yet.
